God is calling WALL BUILDING LEADERS who will take a HAMMER in one hand and a SWORD in the other and build a WALL for this generation.
“The STEPS of a GOOD MAN are ordered by the Lord: and He delights in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholds him with his hand.”
Ps. 37:23-24
The life of a GOOD MAN is Divinely PLANNED. The Life of a GOOD MAN is Divinely APPROVED. The Life of a GOOD MAN is Divinely PROTECTED.
God has given directions as to the way his people should walk and live in this world.
~God’s Word is our road map for the Christian life…unless we READ and FOLLOW the MAP, we are forever LOST.
The only way to end up in “God’s EXPECTED END” for our lives…is to make sure that He is LEADING the way!
~So often we try to be “Christians” without allowing Christ to fully LEAD THE WAY!
“The STEPS of a GOOD MAN are ordered by the Lord: and He delights in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholds him with his hand.”
PS 37:23-24
The ONLY way for you and I to live PURPOSED FILLED LIVES is to walk out the “steps” that have been ordered for us.

“But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind." - James 1:6
The story of Jairus' daughter teaches more on the faith of healing. The Word of Promise gives us something to cling to in the time between asking and receiving.
In Luke 17, in the healing of the 10 lepers, we learn lessons. This was a progressive healing. The Bible puts no timetable on recovery.
You don’t always get HEALED right when you ask. The Bible makes it clear that God WILL…but it does not say when. This series will prepare you to minister for those waiting for their complete healing, maybe even yourself.
This is the way that the Kingdom grows and multiplies…Disciples making Disciples who make Disciples!
Until we “feel” deeply the burden to respond to the call of God, and our eyes are opened to the darkness of our world we will never “GO and MAKE.”
The local church provides accountability to spiritual leadership. God designed this system of accountability for the progress and protection of His flock.
Even though Jesus resides within the heart of every believer, He honors a gathering in his Name by coming in the “midst,” with his power, awareness, and anointing.
We have never been in a season where the PEOPLE of God have been more “indifferent” concerning their ATTENDANCE IN CHURCH. We have lost the IMPORTANCE and NECESSITY of being in God’s house regularly.
If you look at the people who are consistently achieving their goals, you start to realize that it’s not the events or the results that make them different - It’s their commitment to the process.
“Integrity is not about living something perfectly…but wrestling with something faithfully.”
When Life Takes an Unexpected Turn, Trust in God's Plan!
As believers, we should be operating in Godly integrity, opposed to the craftiness and deceit of the world.
~Our foremost goal should be to DO what is RIGHT, not what “feels good” or is most convenient at the time.
Integrity is not a call to live a “perfect life”, but a call to wrestle faithfully with the things that require wholeness and healing.
“When your life is over, the world will ask you only one question: Did you do what you were supposed to do?”
That’s not just a GOOD question—that is THE question.
Did you do what you were supposed to do?
What would happen if you went ALL IN?
Sometimes we have to climb the cliff and PICK A FIGHT!
Jesus didn’t die to make us SAFE—He died to make us DANGEROUS!!!
Nine times out of ten, failure is resorting to plan B when plan A gets to risky, to costly, or too difficult.
It's time to burn your boats.
Anything less than the complete surrender of our lives to the Lordship of Christ is robbing God of the glory He demands and deserves.
What would happen if you went ALL IN?
We’ve taken just enough of Jesus to “feel better” about ourselves, but not enough to feel the surge of Holy adrenaline that courses through the veins of a believer that has decided to follow Him NO MATTER WHAT, NO MATTER WHERE, NO MATTER WHEN.
What would happen if you went ALL IN?
Nothing meaningful and lasting happens until there is a strong conviction that it MUST!
~When the pain of staying the same exceeds the pain of changing…only then are you ready for change!
Conclusion of the "Principles of Lasting Change" series.
Whether you are seeking to make PERSONAL or CORPORATE CHANGES, it is important for us to adopt a CHANGE MODEL to ensure that those changes are made and made to last.
HOW exactly are you going to make change happen? There are many STRATEGIES to choose from – but having a “strategy” for implementing change is important.
You cannot be FULLY CRUCIFIED without help. There is always ONE HAND that needs someone else to hold the HAMMER to get nailed to the cross.
Lasting change isn’t possible without going back to the operating manual of our lives—God’s Word.
Best of continues- New Episodes Soon
Locks only keep out that which is supposed to be kept out—they provide an airtight BOUNDARY that can’t be broken. BUT locks are no boundary to those who have THE KEY!
We hope you've enjoyed the review of 2023's best pods. As Pastor prepares for a new season, absorb this episode.

Pastor Ronnie continues the Perfecting the Saints series, reminding us that our call is rooted in love.
As we learn more of God’s Word and walk in closer fellowship with Him, we begin to develop our beliefs into convictions…and Our lives become controlled by our convictions.
Pastor Ronnie continues to explore the concept of becoming complete, mature and whole in the perfecting process.
Ronnie Harrison returns to Ephesians 4 as we mature those we lead to effective ministers of the Gospel
Unity is critical in the life of the church (INWARD), critical to the church’s testimony (OUTWARD).
Jesus prayed that we would be one; and we are spiritually one in Christ, but He prayed that we would be manifestly one, demonstrably one because of the love that marked our relationships in this world.
The SPECIFIC JOB that we are called to within God’s Kingdom is a “WAY OF LIVING” that invites us into PURPOSE that releases POWER.
God is calling for what He has placed within the life of each individual in His Church. Those GIFTS must be activated so that the END TIME HARVEST can be reaped.
Because the apostles were around Jesus constantly, they had the unique position to both hear what Jesus said and observe how Jesus acted. This “hearing and seeing” is crucial to any discipling relationship.
Teaching, or instruction is an important component of discipleship. We must train those we lead in the Word of God and show them how to live lives that glorify Him.
This is the way that the Kingdom grows and multiplies…Disciples making Disciples who make Disciples!
Until we “feel” deeply the burden to respond to the call of God, and our eyes are opened to the darkness of our world we will never “GO and MAKE.”

God is a God of PROCESS—and there is a process to activating the Kingdom in our lives. That process is revealed in (Matt. 16:13-19)
REVELATION, CONFESSION & TRANSFORMATION.
Life in the Kingdom is about returning to God’s original purpose for man – which is revealed in His creation of a garden and in His DELIVERANCE of the people of Israel from Egyptian bondage.
Your EXODUS will not be without RESISTANCE!
The Children of Israel came to a moment when they a MIRACLE…they were trapped and hemmed in on all sides.
In the Kingdom there is DELIVERANCE that leads to FREEDOM!
“The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears, And delivers them out of all their troubles. The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart, And saves such as have a contrite spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, But the LORD delivers him out of them all.” (Ps. 34:17-19 NKJV)
In the Kingdom GOD IS CALLING AND SENDING MEN.
We are in a season in the body of Christ where we are directing people to "COME"… but we are not directing people to “GO!”
Original Intent, the picture painted in creation. Man’s disobedience caused a separation from God and His purpose—man was locked out of PURPOSE, removed from his POSITION, and separated from POWER.
~The CROSS gave man a bridge back to God…back to God’s PURPOSE, back to our POSITION, and back to the POWER!
(Luke 2:49) “And He said to them, “Why did you seek Me? Did you not know that I must be about My Father’s business?”
God delegated the DIVISION OF LABOR and the DECISION MAKING RESPONSIBILITIES concerning the earth-realm to mankind.
God gave revelation concerning what the Kingdom would ultimately look like in His work of CREATION.
“And God SAID…” Genesis 1:3 In the Kingdom the King's VOICE can be “HEARD.”
Christ came with the purpose of revealing WHAT LIFE IN THE KINGDOM LOOKS LIKE while living it out in front of us - and then hand off those REALITIES to us.
We weren’t made for everything but each of us were made for something. How many people go through life without ever finding their “something"?
More Means More. Each time you are successful the next challenge will be more difficult, the criticisms will be more severe, the tests stronger and the price higher.
In Matthew 20, Jesus is having a conversation with a mother concerning her two sons and is revealing some principles concerning Spiritual Leadership
Being a Spiritual Leader means that you are taking responsibility for the souls of others–for their development–and for the call that is on their life.
The goal of Spiritual Leadership is to bring others into PURPOSE and PARTNERSHIP with God’s agenda in the earth.

Celebrating 100 episodes of Culture Keys. Thanks for taking this leadership journey with us. If you don’t want to be ridiculed, tempted, spoken ill of, or put under PRESSURE…then wall building leadership isn’t for you. We must get comfortable with the realities of LEADERSHIP
The shape and condition of the PRESENT-DAY CHURCH requires that God call WALL BUILDERS to “rebuild” the walls.
Nehemiah knew enough to know that he needed to travel with the words of the King. Before you head off to accomplish the assignment that God has given you…you need the King’s WORDS!
What breaks your heart? What stirs your emotions? What keeps you up at night? What concerns you to the point of PRAYER?
God is calling WALL BUILDING LEADERS who will take a HAMMER in one hand and a SWORD in the other and build a WALL for this generation.
Opening the book on a fresh series, Pastor Ronnie explores the richness of Nehemiah's leadership traits.
If we are going to experience a NEW BEGINNING we are going to have to be dedicated to personal growth. We are determined to step into the NEW THIING that God is doing in our lives.
You will never MAXIMIZE your POTENTIAL if you keep doing what you’ve always done. If you aren’t currently taking steps to “become” what you want to be, you have pushed PAUSE on the future that God has called you to.
(1 Cor. 2:9) “But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor has it entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” The question is NOT whether God will do it. The question is “can you PERCIEVE it?"
New beginnings require a new you. God wouldn’t take the OLD YOU and put it in a NEW SITUATION. The OLD YOU will take the NEW SITUATION and turn it back into the OLD SITUATION.
Not some of, but “EVERY good and perfect GIFT comes from Him!” If it’s coming FROM God, then it means that it is not DEPENDENT on anything else.
No matter what LAST YEAR looked like for you, there is a NEW BEGINNING that is available to you.

You're gifted, graced and anointed. Identifying your dominant motivational gift positions you to fill your role and live to tell the tale.
When we realize that our maturity, nor our character has earn our spiritual gifts, we're in a better position to find our place and operate in full.
Every God-given gift includes the grace to operate in it. Finding your puzzle includes living in that grace and knowing His pleasure dictated the distribution of those gifts.
Comparison is the not only the thief of joy, but zaps the power God has entrusted leaders with. We have to maximize our place in the puzzle by getting every ounce out of the gifts He's given us.
Once we understand the power of our place, we can realize the strength received and released from being in the correct position.
The Word is clear, no part of the body is greater than the other. Finding where your piece fits and what puzzle it's fit for, is imperative to leadership success.

Lewis said, “To be a Christian means to forgive the inexcusable because God has forgiven the inexcusable in you.” In today's episode, Pastor Ronnie introduces a fifth principle of preparation, the principle of FORGIVENESS.
